Evening all, further to my Crash earlier today, I was wondering if anyone knows if my leather jacket is still safe to use? From the looks of it the crash has just taken the 'finish' off of parts of it, thanks in advance...

As long as all the stitching is ok, it looks fine to me. Thumbs Up

Its only scuffed...same as you'd do to a shoe if you fell over. Nothing a little bit of Dubbin wouldn't do wonders to.

If you haven't used it before, you'll wonder why not after you invest in a can. I have black leathers so bought black Dubbin. It lasts for years and years, just like your leathers will if you look after them. Thumbs Up

That's perfectly fine. You only have to question it if there are actual holes.
